If you're passing ...

Anyone passing Stoke wanting to see a lovely 8C, Platts have one in there showroom. Looks very nice.

Can't help thinking it's just a Ferrari with an Alfa badge, so I wouldn't want one

If anything it's more maserati.

I love it. Just wish they were affordable... oh well 10 years... £20,000? (unlikely)

True, but Maserati uses Ferrari engines

Looking around it, there are sooo many Ferrari cues, not so much Maserati. But it's just gorgeous anyway!

Whereabouts is Platts? I don't live far from Stoke.

That's what the hyper global interweb is for, Bazza

It's in Longton, just off the A50. If you're around at about 5:30 I'll be there picking up a black Spider LE. So say hello!

It is one awesome piece of kit.

Its like a Ferrari with a different badge? Oh dear amateur mistake! Its got a maser engine, chassis, it has Ferrari seats and is made at the Maserati factory right next to the other Masers!

Thanks for that.

The new Ferrari California is apparently just a rehashed 8c considering what a good job they made of the Alfa.

The noise i think impressed me most about the Alfa, it sounds so forumla one its un canny!

Where abouts have you seen it Robbo? Not seen one on the road yet.

[robborover]

Road between Stone and Mere (I assume its from Platts). Red of course!

Rob, yeah that's a great stretch of road. First drive of the GTA was along there. I think that's Lee's favourite demonstrator run!
